Abstract
This study aims to provide information about the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on children's motor skills so that they can anticipate the prevention of motor skills decline and efforts to promote children's health behavior during the COVID-19 pandemic. This study uses a literature review method using a comprehensive strategy such as searching for articles in research journal databases. The databases used are Pubmed/MEDLINE, Scopus, Web of Science, and Embase. The keywords used in the search were COVID-19, motor skills, sports, movement and children. There were 20 articles obtained, and 7 articles were analyzed through the purpose, suitability of the topic, sample size, research protocol, and the results of each article. The results of this study explain that the COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in decreased motor skills due to children's activities at home such as increased sleeping habits, increased eating habits, increased screen time. Thus the role of parents is very important to maintain children's motor skills during the COVID-19 pandemic
